Notes: Subject habitually travels armed – carries a modified VES-7000 Pulse Rifle referred to as “Clementine”. Permits are up to date. Due to nature of employment likely has access to significant arsenal – should detention be required arrest should be executed off-premises.

Usually accompanied by a reprogrammed and retrofitted Trade Federation B1 Battle Droid referred to as “Roy”. Threat assessment currently under compilation – at present treat as Grade 3F Equipment rather than independent threat.

Subject Background

Subject is the child of FACTORY and DESPITE. Both parents formerly employed by the Trade Federation during the Secession Conflicts / the Clone Wars. DESPITE was employed as part of PROJECT CYCLONE reprogramming B1 droids into combat models. FACTORY was part of the mechanics team also involved in PROJECT CYCLONE and worked on blaster technology. Following the failure of the Secession and the rise of the Empire both FACTORY and DESPITE escaped capture and retired to Cynabale (Outer Rim planet designate 1155852). They have opened an establishment – Bar’s Bespoke Blasters – specialising in weapons and equipment design and modification. At present no enforceable activity has been detected.

Subject was born 17 years ago and has not left the planet. Subject was raised at Bar’s Bespoke Blasters and inculcated into the family trade.

Reason for Watch list Inclusion

ROSE PLACARD first entered watchlist status due to nature of companion / bodyguard – a reprogrammed and retrofitted B1 Battle Droid. Due to parental tutelage and nature of employment subject has developed contacts in the underworld – especially that linked to THROW OSMOSIS – and provided the augmented weaponry and equipment used in at least nine anti-Imperial crimes. See file coded DANCE BASKET. No direct link of culpability has yet been determined – all permits and work are legal to Cynabale standards and as yet Cynabale has not been fully integrated into Imperial rule.

In last 3 cycles has struck up a friendship with CROCUS HARVEST, who has instructed subject in combat skills. The two have developed a Hintaro and Sabaak habit and frequent both the Bloody Kiss (local tavern) and an illicit gambling den called Dunes. Dunes is known to be a front for THROW OSMOSIS.

Subject has short criminal record related to unlicensed modifications. Also tagged as an affiliate to the Screaming Bantha swoop gang but is not yet a sworn member. Of more interest, has recently been spotted with known CRISIS TASK members. There are concerns over radicalisation – given the potential for damages posed by subject’s expertise and access subject has been recoded from threat level to SUNRISE EMERGENT.

Recommended Action Plan: At present, observation only. Radicalisation is potential but not yet confirmed. Imperial power is limited due to THROW OSMOSIS influence. Flag for collection if subject travels off-planet.
